drfpasswordless is a quick way to integrate ‘passwordless’ auth into

your Django Rest Framework project using a user’s email address or

mobile number only (herein referred to as an alias).



Built to work with DRF’s own TokenAuthentication system, it sends the

user a 6-digit callback token to a given email address or a mobile

number. The user sends it back correctly and they’re given an

authentication token (again, provided by Django Rest Framework’s

TokenAuthentication system).



Callback tokens by default expire after 15 minutes.



Example Usage:

==============



```bash

curl -X POST -d “[email protected]” localhost:8000/auth/email/

```



Email to [email protected]:



```

...

Your login token is 815381.


...

```



Return Stage



```bash

curl -X POST -d "[email protected]&token=815381" localhost:8000/auth/token/



> HTTP/1.0 200 OK

> {"token":"76be2d9ecfaf5fa4226d722bzdd8a4fff207ed0e”}

```



Requirements

============



- Python (3.7+)

- Django (2.2+)

- Django Rest Framework + AuthToken (3.10+)

- Python-Twilio (Optional, for mobile.)



Install

=======



1. Install drfpasswordless



   ```

   pipenv install drfpasswordless

   ```



2. Add Django Rest Framework’s Token Authentication to your Django Rest

   Framework project.



```python

 REST_FRAMEWORK = {

     'DEFAULT_AUTHENTICATION_CLASSES':

    ('rest_framework.authentication.TokenAuthentication',

 )}



 INSTALLED_APPS = [

     ...

     'rest_framework',

     'rest_framework.authtoken',

     'drfpasswordless',

      ...

 ]

```



And run

```bash

python manage.py migrate

```



3. Set which types of contact points are allowed for auth in your

   Settings.py. The available options are ``EMAIL`` and ``MOBILE``.



```python

PASSWORDLESS_AUTH = {

   ..

   'PASSWORDLESS_AUTH_TYPES': ['EMAIL', 'MOBILE'],

   ..

}

```



   By default drfpasswordless looks for fields named ``email`` or ``mobile``

   on the User model. If an alias provided doesn’t belong to any given user,

   a new user is created.



   3a. If you’re using ``email``, see the Configuring Email section

   below.



   3b. If you’re using ``mobile``, see the Configuring Mobile section

   below.



4. Add ``drfpasswordless.urls`` to your urls.py



```python

 from django.urls import path, include



 urlpatterns = [

     ..

     path('', include('drfpasswordless.urls')),

     ..

 ]

```



5. You can now POST to either of the endpoints:



```bash

curl -X POST -d "[email protected]" localhost:8000/auth/email/



// OR



curl -X POST -d "mobile=+15552143912" localhost:8000/auth/mobile/

```

   A 6 digit callback token will be sent to the contact point.



6. The client has 15 minutes to use the 6 digit callback token

   correctly. If successful, they get an authorization token in exchange

   which the client can then use with Django Rest Framework’s

   TokenAuthentication scheme.



```bash

curl -X POST -d "[email protected]&token=815381" localhost:8000/auth/token/



> HTTP/1.0 200 OK

> {"token":"76be2d9ecfaf5fa4226d722bzdd8a4fff207ed0e”}

```



Configuring Emails

------------------



Specify the email address you’d like to send the callback token from

with the ``PASSWORDLESS_EMAIL_NOREPLY_ADDRESS`` setting.

```python

PASSWORDLESS_AUTH = {

   ..

   'PASSWORDLESS_AUTH_TYPES': ['EMAIL',],

   'PASSWORDLESS_EMAIL_NOREPLY_ADDRESS': '[email protected]',

   ..

}

```



You’ll also need to set up an SMTP server to send emails but for

development you can set up a dummy development smtp server to test

emails. Sent emails will print to the console. `Read more

here. `__



```python

# Settings.py

EMAIL_BACKEND = 'django.core.mail.backends.console.EmailBackend'

```



Configuring Mobile

------------------



You’ll need to have the python twilio module installed



```bash

pipenv install twilio

```



and set the ``TWILIO_ACCOUNT_SID`` and ``TWILIO_AUTH_TOKEN`` environment

variables. These are read from `os.environ`, so make sure you don't put

them in your settings file accidentally.



You’ll also need to specify the number you send the token from with the

``PASSWORDLESS_MOBILE_NOREPLY_NUMBER`` setting.



Templates

=========



If you’d like to use a custom email template for your email callback

token, specify your template name with this setting:



```bash

PASSWORDLESS_AUTH = {

   ...

  'PASSWORDLESS_EMAIL_TOKEN_HTML_TEMPLATE_NAME': "mytemplate.html"

}

```



The template renders a single variable ``{{ callback_token }}`` which is

the 6 digit callback token being sent.



Contact Point Validation

========================



Endpoints can automatically mark themselves as validated when a user

logs in with a token sent to a specific endpoint. They can also

automatically mark themselves as invalid when a user changes a contact

point.



This is off by default but can be turned on with

``PASSWORDLESS_USER_MARK_EMAIL_VERIFIED`` or

``PASSWORDLESS_USER_MARK_MOBILE_VERIFIED``. By default when these are

enabled they look for the User model fields ``email_verified`` or

``mobile_verified``.



You can also use ``auth/verify/email/`` or ``/auth/verify/mobile/`` which will

automatically send a token to the endpoint attached to the current

``request.user``'s email or mobile if available.



You can then send that token to ``/auth/verify/`` which will double-check

that the endpoint belongs to the request.user and mark the alias as verified.



Registration

============



All unrecognized emails and mobile numbers create new accounts by

default. New accounts are automatically set with

``set_unusable_password()`` but it’s recommended that admins have some

type of password.



This can be turned off with the ``PASSWORDLESS_REGISTER_NEW_USERS``

setting.
